Redemption Tips

Redemption: 1¢/point toward travel, dining, or any purchases classified as travel/dining. Points are redeemed as statement credits within 12 months of the travel purchase. This is a "cash toward travel" model rather than a transfer model — no airline or hotel partner redemptions available. Maximize by making travel purchases (flights, hotels, car rentals, ride-shares, restaurants) and immediately applying points as statement credits. No blackout dates or seat restrictions.
